The Wellcome
Centre for the History of Medicine at UCL seeks applications for a three-year
research fellowship on any field of the history of Central Asia and
medicine. PhD or an equivalent
research degree, and an active programme of research in Kazak and Uzbek, are
required. Remuneration will be in
the range from the low to mid-30,000 pounds sterling, depending on
seniority. The fellowship may be
taken up as early as January 2007.
UCL will be offering language studies in Kazak and Uzbek, and hopes that
it might be possible to raise funds for a longer term academic post. A letter of application, curriculum
vita, and the names of three referees are due by post or email to Prof. Cook by
17 November 2006. For further
information, please see www.ucl.ac.uk/histmed
